178 Fairplay Street, Rutledge

Welcome to 178 Fairplay St., in Small-But-Special Rutledge, Georgia. Step through a quaint front porch into a storybook Folk Victorian cottage where every corner whispers charm. This 3-bedroom, 1,700 square foot home sits on just under a half acre and is just a block from downtown Rutledge - a perfect blend of community, convenience and peaceful, private grounds.
